Right--you can select all or some of the configurations to be shown in an e-Drawing assembly. You'll see the various assemblies on the bottom of the e-Drawing view port as tabs. Works great and doesn't seem to increase file size (at least not significantly).
Isn't eDrawings Pro (i.e. not free $) needed to include multiple configurations in the single file (as well as the measure and the move component/explode capability)?
KenBolen, these options are with the free eDrawings.
After picking eDrawings for Save As, pick the Options button. The options include:
Okay to measure this eDrawings file
Allow export to STL for parts and assemblies
Save Animator Animations to eDrawings file
After picking Save, you get a pop-up that gives you 3 options for saving configurations:
Current configuration
All configurations
Selected configurations:
(pick from selection)
Saving additional configurations may increase save time and file size.
Also ... In most cases, if you email the .exe you will have to rename it something like .eze, then have the recipient rename back to .exe because of Outlook security reasons.

I see now... we have SW Office Professional, and eDrawings Pro is included with it. I didn't think about checking which version we had or if it was Pro.
